Sip Tea and Explore Women’s History at Villa Louis
Join us for a special day of tea and history at Villa Louis as you explore the rich lives of the women who lived and worked at the iconic estate. Sip hot tea in the Brisbois Warehouse, enjoy refreshments inspired by French Canadian fur trade culture, learn about the Dousmans and other important women of Villa Louis during a presentation, take a guided Brisbois House tour and learn about special objects from the estate collection. The talk will be led by public historian Mary Elise Antoine, author of the newly published An Elegant Edifice: The Women Who Forged a Legacy at Villa Louis.
Please note that due to its nature as a historic site, not all areas of Villa Louis are ADA accessible. Guests must climb stairs to enter and exit the Brisbois House.
